Titus 2
1 I wu u ka hla njaaji ilan.
But do thou speak the things which become sound teaching;
2 Gbi bi ciche lila du mba hi he vutu bey vu sunro be toh jaji ni mi kpakyeme ni itere u Irji.
that aged men be sober, grave, discreet, sound in faith, in love, in patience;
3 Na ki imba be niko be ka vutu bi bana be tere totona du bana so ima u tehuwa na.
that aged women likewise be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not enslaved to much wine, teachers of what is good,
4 Du ba tsoro imba be tsitsama itere sunko wa balilo.
that they may teach the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,
5 Du mba hi be mlaya mba komba bata tee naki itere Irji a ni bi kerekereme.
to be discreet, chaste, workers at home, good, in subjection to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.
6 Na ki u ka hla imirize du mba hey be sisuron.
The younger men likewise exhort to be sober-minded;
7 Ko ni konrime u ka zeren dedeme.
in all things showing thyself a pattern of good works, in teaching showing uncorruptness, gravity,
8 Hla tere be dedema. bewa bana toh itere Irji na Ishan ka temba.
sound speech that cannot be condemned; that he that is opposed to us may be put to shame, having no evil thing to say of us.
9 I miri ko mba wo tere ni tei komba ni mi kogeh mba na sunyu ni mbana.
Exhort bond-servants to be in subjection to their own masters, in all things to be well-pleasing to them,
10 Du ba na tee yibi na. Mba ka ji kpakyeme U Irji gbahgbah me.
not contradicting, not purloining, but showing all good faith; that they may adorn the teaching of God our Saviour in all things.
11 U imiri Irji ba toh didima wawumba.
For the grace of God, that bringeth salvation to all men, was manifested,
teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in the present world; (aiōn g165)
13 Keh ta zere di ta gbey tee lulu ni ze sunro u ye ivere Irji tee bu.
looking for the blessed hope, and appearing of the glory of the great God and of our Saviour Jesus Christ;
14 Yesu a kpa hla tere u bu ni gbu gblu da ikheu ubu wawu. na ki khi ka hu hla terema.
who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a people to be his own, zealous in good works.
15 U ka tere ni gbe gble de tshoro ba jaji ndah na kpa u tsirina.
These things speak and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no one despise thee.
